Thanks y'all! Kitchen and porch music is indeed the best, in my humble experience. I don't play on, and there's no mandolin on this video, but it's another one I filmed of some of my very good...

Howdy y'all, I don't post very often but I frequent the forums. I'm up here in St. Louis and I'm doing my damnedest to try and get a roots scene going. It's really coming along, and If i could, I...
Thanks yall. I'm working on recording a full album, I'll share it when its finished. It will of course be featuring quite a bit of mandolin;)
Oh ok, thanks Mark. I'm glad you like the lo-fi quality, seeing as I don't have the equipment to do anything else;)
Hey Mark, can you describe what you mean by "too dressy" and that line not feeling authentic? I appreciate your criticism I just don't quite understand it the way you phrased it.
Rex, and Billy Joe...
Mike and Bernie, I could never forget them, they all have a solid place in my record collection. I actually saw hays a couple weeks ago, great show. And we should also not forget James Hand and Jimmy...
Thank you all for your kind comments! Guy clark and John prine have always been favorites of mine and are both huge influences, especially clark(both of us hailing from Texas). I'm glad you could...
Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, its a rough mix, i mixed it down on my headphones and the bass was pretty loud, but i need to get some decent studio monitors so i can get a flat response for a better...
Howdy y'all, I just wrote and recorded a new song this morning, the recordings a little rough but it features mandolin pretty prominently. I recorded the vocals with the guitar, and then overdubbed...
I second mandotim on the excelsior, its a great amp, and the 15" cone gives a very full rounded tone, good for playing SRV style stuff.
I just finished a quick bedroom recording session and thought I would look for some feedback. The song is a cover of Hank williams "lost highway". I recorded it on a cassette multitrack with vocals,...
Hahaha, I thought the same thing, he sure is pounding them ivories.
Thanks y'all, some great stuff that I haven't heard! I forgot about the mando on lost highway. I hadn't heard "may you never be alone like me", thats incredible, exactly what I was looking for! Buck...
Howdy y'all, just found this video and thought it was relevant. It's a compilation of three different clips featuring Paul Buskirk on his double neck electric mandola-guitar. The last one is my...
Ah, I love the Louvin brothers, and they do have some more country flavored stuff too, I really liked that album they did called My baby's gone. Great stuff. Haven't heard of Paul Buskirk, but I just...
Howdy folks, I'm a big fan of old country tunes, and I mean the 40's and 50's stuff. Hank williams, lefty frizzell, earnest tubb etc. However, mandolin is not frequently featured on a lot of those...
Thank you for the kind words gentlemen, this is the first time that I've really let any of my music public, so I really appreciate it:)
Oh, and I forgot to mention one thing about the equipment, the...
Little george, The guitar is a morgan monroe creekside mv-01, which i love, great guitar for the money. Bass is a fender squire vintage modified p-bass, big mud-bucker in the bridge, sounds great...
Howdy Y'all! I just finished recording a cover of big joe turner's classic "shake rattle and roll", with a good bit of mandolin thrown in the mix. I thought it might interest some of you, so I...
Thanks for the replies. Swampstomper(great name by the way), in concern to the weber, it's headstock snapped off a few years ago and I re-attached it with gorilla glue, It seems sturdy enough through...
Howdy folks, I just got back heavy into playing mandolin after four years of a misguided journey down other musical paths(what was I thinking?). I still got my good ol' weber Y2K that I played hard...
I've run into the same problem playing mandolin, tenor guitar, mandola, and octave. I find that taking a song and playing it through on all the instruments helps to build a mental image of where the...
Mandomod, I've used the stewmac fingerboard stain and it works great, just wipe on wipe off, it wont stain frets, so you can apply it straight on to your fingerboard. It's powerful stuff, I left a...
